Israel Expells Jews in West Bank Village

by Eric on May 21, 2009

While the village only had four families living their, the small settlement was their home. The small settlement in the Ramallah region was destroyed by IDF troops after the families were removed.

This is thought of as a message to Barack Obama that the new Israeli government will be a willing partner for peace.

Just hours after their homes were destroyed, the Jewish residents returned to try to rebuild their lives.
